Tonight I celebrate my love for youIt seems the natural thing to doTonight no one's gonna find usWe'll leave the world behind usWhen I make love to youTonight I celebrate my love for youAnd hope that deep inside you feel it tooTonight our spirits will be climbingTo the sky lit up with diamondsWhen I make love to you tonight

Tonight I celebrate my love for you (ooh)And that midnight song is gonna come shining throughTonight there'll be no distance between usWhat I want most to doIs to get close to you tonight

Tonight I celebrate my love for youAnd soon this old world will seem brand newTonight we will both discoverHow friends turn into loversWhen I make love to you

Tonight I celebrate my love for you (ooh)And that midnight song is gonna come shining throughTonight there'll be no distance between usWhat I want most to doIs to get close to you

Tonight I celebrate my love for you
